Keywords:
James Joyce, Irish, Modernism, Language, StyleAbstract
As a novelist James Joyce surpasses his predecessors in the experimental use of the use of stream of consciousness technique and the interior monologue. The most impressive and innovative method in the art of Joyce’s novel writing is found in his use of epiphany, and in his symbolic parallels drawn from history, mythology and literature. As a modernist, he is also a great exponent in the brilliant and innovative use of language in the literature of the 20th century. The present paper is an attempt to make a study of Joyce’s experimental use of language in his novel 1916 novel A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man.
